A question that should be asked.

How Long has the DC Swamp known of this massive SNAP abuse and choose to do nothing?

Because every ~~penny~~ Nickel we pay in taxes is $$$$ we need, NOT the F'ing Gov. telling us "Let them eat Cake" & wasting it.

4 Knowing there is some fraud is not the same as having even soft numbers, NN2N1.

5 Trying to find in the Constitution where this is federal power given the 10th Amendment says if its not enumerated it isn't.

My tick-off is seeing the 350LBS +++ with a butt so wide it hangs over the E-cart type people. With a 10-13 year olds pushing a shopping cart loaded, no daddy around, and using SNAP.

Buying things the wife and I worked 45+ years and were taxed 30+% of our life, before retiring.

Looking at the clear abuse ahead of us in the checkout.

Then to top it off, watching them later load their haul, into a German brand vehicle maybe 2 years old at most.

7 If you graphed the incidence of fraudulent sign ups by month, they would peak in Obama and Biden years. They might not back off much in the first Trump Admin as DJT had a lot of other worries.

9 Withhold all SNAP benefits to states that refuse to comply with the request for data.

10 How Long has the DC Swamp known of this massive SNAP abuse and choose to do nothing?

You all know the answer to this question. The abuse was baked into the program and it began the very same day that the program began.

11 Unfortunately States have little incentive to prevent fraud since the basic SNAP benefits are 100% federal (States have to pay some of the expense of administration).

If the SNAP benefits were, say 60%F/40%S it would be a different story. That may not be possible politically but 80F/20S probably is.
